WORLDS | 3D | Forest village | Fanmen and Veshelya

[fanmen]

Hey there! We are Fanmen and Veshelya, we are friends who who studied together, and we are pretty new in environment modeling, and with this contest we are going to try to do our best to finish something we'll be proud of.

Our idea is to create a village in a forest, over the ruins of an ancient city. We can find the ruins of a castle and a small town, devastated by a war. Years and years after that, new people arrive to this location, now transformed into a big forest. This people, with the help of some magic, rebuild the town on the top of the trees, living of the nature and the magic it bring them.

We are going to try to mix the old ruins of the castle and the town, with the new vegetation of the forest, and build the new village on top of all that.

We want to have some fun and to learn a lot. Hope you like the idea :3

References

We have collected some references for the environment. First we have a few for the design of the ancient ruins, and others for the new civilization.

We have been busy for a couple of weeks, but these last few days we have made some concepts, and here they are ...

The first concepts are some sketches of the architecture of the old civilization

Aaaand, some sketches of what the new civilization should look like
We want to make it look more natural, and with magic. All the decoration is made with magic and crystal, that's why it have flower glowing, it give them light and heat.

And finally, a concept of the whole city (the one thats going to be in ruins :3)
The city had a system of aqueducts to distribute the water through the city

We are not sure if we are going to do the whole city, but we wanted to have a general idea of how it should look

And we did a quick concept of what we want to see in the final render
